02  GENERAL   ORDERS   AND   CIRCULARS, 

IV.  To  each  member  of  the  Court  will  be  sent  an  order  informing  him  of  his  ap- 
pointment, and  of  the  time  when  and  place  where  the  Court  is  ordered  to  assemble, 
and  directing  him  to  report  to  the  senior  member  present. 

V.  To  the  Judge  Advocate  will  be  sent  an  order  informing  him  of  his  appoint- 
ment, and  of  the  time  when  and  place  where  the  Court  is  ordered  to  assemble,  and 
directing  him  to  report  to  the  senior  member  present. 

To  him  will  be  sent  the  order  or  precept  for  the  Court,  and  the  original  charges, 
the  receipt  of  which  he  will  be  ordered  to  acknowledge,  and  he  will  furnish  the  ac- 
cused with  a  true  copy  of  the  charges  and  specifications,  and  state  in  the  record  that 
he  has  done  so,  at  the  time  the  accused  party  is  placed  under  arrest,  together  with  a 
list  of  witnesses. 

VI.  Notice  will  be  sent  to  the  parties  to  be  tried,  or  whose  conduct  is  to  be  in- 
vestigated, of  the  time  and  place  of  the  assembling  of  the  Court,  with  an  order  to 
appear  before  it  for  trial,  which  order  shall  be  deemed  an  arrest  of  the  party  so 
ordered  to  appear. 

VII.  The  place  of  holding  a  Court  is  appointed  by  the  authority  convening  it, 
which  is  alone  authorized  to  change  it. 

VIII.  Application  for  delay  or  postponement  of  trial  must,  when  practicable,  be 
made  to  the  authority  convening  the  Court.  When  made  to  the  Court  it  must  be 
before  plea,  and  will  then,  if  in  the  opinion  of  the  Court  well  founued,  be  referred  to 
the  authority  convening  the  Court,  to  decide  whether  the  Court  shall  be  adjourned 
or  dissolved,  and  the  charges  reserved  for  another  Court. 

IX.  Upon  application  by  the  accused  for  postponement  on  the  ground  of  absence 
of  witnesses,  it  ought  distinctly  to  appear  on  his  oath  ;  1st,  That  the  vitness  is  ma- 
terial, and  how  ;  2d,  That  the  accused  has  used  due  diligence  to  procure  his  attend- 
ance ;  and  3d,  That  he  has  reasonable  grounds  to  believe,  and  does  believe,  that  he 
will  be  able  to  procure  such  attendance  within  a  reasonable  time  stated. 

X.  The  Judge  Advocate  shall  summon  the  necessary  witnesses  for  the  trial,  but 
he  shall  not  summon  any  witnesses  at  the  expense  of  toe  Confederate  States,  nor  any 
officer  of  the  Navy,  without  the  order  of  the  Court,  unless  satisfied  thac  his  testimony 
is  material,  and  necessary  to  the  ends  of  justice. 

XI.  Every  Court  Martial  shall  keep  a  complete  and  accurate  record  of  its  pro- 
ceedings, to  be  authenticated  by  the  signatures  of  the  President  and  Judge  Advocate, 
in  addition  to  the  signatures  of  each  and  every  member,  and  the  Jud^e  Advocate  at 
the  end  of  the  sentence.  The  record  must  show  that  the  Court  was  organized  as 
the  law  requires  ;  that  the  Court  was  duly  sworn  by  the  Judge  Advocate,  and  that 
the  Judge  Advocate  was  duly  sworn  by  the  President  of  the  Court,  in  the  presence 
of  the  accused  ;  that  he  was  previously  asked  whether  he  had  any  objection  to  any 
member,  (the  Judge  Advocate  naming  them  over  to  him  in  the  order  of  their  rank,) 
and  his  answer  thereto,  and  further,  where  a  member  or  members  is  objected  to,  and 
the  ground  of  objection  stated,  that  such  member  or  members  withdrew  from  the 
Court  while  the  objection  was  being  considered.  The  accused  shall  a  ways  he  asked 
whether  he  desires  counsel,  and  if  he  does,  opportunity  shall  be  allowed  him  to  ob- 
tain it,  and  when  counsel  appears,  his  name  should  be  entered  on  the  record. 

All  oaths  to  witnesses  shall  be  administered  by  the  President  of  the  Court,  and 
the  record  shall  so  state. 

A  copy  of  the  order  appointing  the  Court,  and  any  orders  changing  the  members 
thereof,  by  detachment  or  otherwise,  or  appointing  new  members,  as  also  the  order 
to  try  the  particular  case  before  it,  will  be  entered  on  the  record  in  each  case,  to- 
gether with  the  names  of  those  members  present  each  day,  those  absent,  noting  the 
cause  of  such  absence,  and  where  it  is  caused  by  sickness  the  Surgeon's  certificate 
should  be  attached  to  tho  record,  and  appropriately  marked  and  referred  to. 

XII.  Whenever  the  same  Court  Martial  tries  more  accused  persons  than  one,  and 
they  are  arraigned  on  separate  and  distinct  charges,  the  Court  is  to  be  sworn  at  the 
commencement  of  each  trial,  and  tho  proceedings  and  record  in  each  case  will  be 
made  up  separately,  and  must  be  complete  in  itself. 

XIII.  The  record  shall  be  clearly  and  legibly  written,  as  far  as  practicable  without 
erasures  or  interlineations,  and  when  such  are  made  they  are  to  be  noted  at  the  end 
of  the  record,  the  pages  to  be  numbered,  with  a  margin  of  one  inch  on  the  left  side 
of  each  page,  and  at  the  top  of  the  odd  and  bottom  of  the  even,  through  this  last, 
margin  the  sheets  to  be  stitched  together,  the  documents  accompanying  the  proceed- 


GENERAL   ORDERS   AND   CIRCULARS.  93 

ings  to  be  noted  and  marked  in  such  manner  as  to  afford  an  easy  reference,  and 
where  not  inserted  in  the  body  of  the  record,  and  essentially  a  part  thereof,  should 
be  referred  to  in  such  terms. 

In  each  case  the  original  charges  are  to  bo  returned  as  a  part  of  the  record. 

XIV.  When  a  witness  is  iirst  called,  it  should  be  entered  on  the  rocord  whose  wit- 
ness he  is,  and  his  name,  occupation,  and  rank  or  rating,  and  where  stationed,  and 
bis  examination  by  the  party  oalling  him.  shall,  as  far  as  practicable,  he  first  con- 
cluded, when  the  other  party  having  finished  the  cross  examination,  and  the  party 
whose  witness  he  is  the  re  examination,  the  Court  will  commence  its  examination  of 
the  witness. 

The  re-examination  of  the  witness  by  the  party  calling  him,  will  ho  confined  strict- 
ly to  the  elucidation  of   evidence   brought  out  on  the  cross  examination. 

Each  question  shall  lie  numbered,  and  it  shall  appear  on  the  record,  by  whom  the 
questions  were  asked,  where  the  examination  in  chief  ends,  and  the  cross-examination 
begins  and  ends,  and  where  the  prosecution  and  defence  closes,  it  shall  he  so  stated. 

XV.  When  proceedings  shall  have  commenced,  they  shall  not.  be  suspended  or  de- 
layed, on  account  of  the  absence  of  any  of  the  members,  provided  five  or  more  be 
assembled;  but  the  Court  is  enjoined  to  sit  from  day  to  day,  Sundays  excepted,  until 
sentence  be  given. 

When  sentence  is  given  in  any  particular  case,  and  the  Court  has  concluded  all  the 
business  before  it,  it  may  adjourn  sine  die,  but  its  legal  existence  continues,  and  the 
members  and  Judge  Advocate  will  remain  at  the  place  of  assembling  until  it  is  regu- 
larly dissolve!  by  the  autfa  irity  which  convoked  it,  or  they  are  otherwise  ordered. 

There  may  be  controlling  causes,  other  than  the  absence  of  members,  in   the   i 
ment  of  the  Court,  t  in  adjournment  over  for  a  longer  period  than  from  day 

to  day  during  the  trial  of  a  case,  when  the  Court  should  adjourn  to  a  day  certain,  or 
when  called  together  by  the  presiding  officer. 

XV«.  Where  the  specification  of  the  charge  is  "proved,"  it  should  be  so  stated, 
and  where  there  is  a  special  rinding  ;  the  words  that  are  proved,  and  those  that  are 
not,  should  be  distinctly  set  forth  in  the  finding,  placing  the  words  of  the  specifica- 
tion that  are  proved,  and  those  that  are  not  proved,  in  quotation  marks. 

XVI.  No  recommendation  shall  be  embraced  in  the  body  ot  the  sentence.  Those 
members  only  who  concur  in  the  recommendation  will  sign  it. 

XVII.  In  every  case  where  the  sentence  of  the  Court  shall  extend  to  loss  of  life, 
the  fact  that  two-thirds  of  the  members  present  concurred  in  the  sentence,  must  ap- 
pear on  the  record. 

Wnere  the  sentence  directs  confinement  in  a  public  prison  or  penitentiary,  it  is 
recommended  that  the  words  "or  such  other  place  as  the  Secretary  of  tic  Navy 
may  designate,''  should  be  inserted,  as  he  has  no  control  over  any  penitentiary  or 
public  prison. 

XVIII.  The  Judge  Advocate  shall  transmit  the  proceedings  without  delay  to  the 

Detail,  C  8.  Navy  Department,  and  the  officer  having  authority 
to  confirm  the  sentence  in  each  case,  will  state  at  the  end  of  tho  proceedings  his  de- 
cision and  orders  thereon. 

XIX.  Courts  of  Inquiry  shall  consist  of  one  or  more  officers,  not  exceeding  three, 
and..    I  |   mob    Courts   shall   merely   state   facts,  and 

ivc  their  opinion  unl  required  by  the  authority  ordering  the  Court, 

and  the  party  lact  it  the  subject  of  inquiry,  shall  have  permission  t  0  cross 

examine  all  the  witne  than  bis  own. 

Courts  of  Inquiry  will  keep  records  of  their  proceedings  similar  to  those  required 
to  be  kept  by  '  rtial,  and,  where  applicable,  similar  rules  will   be  observed  ; 

and  they  will  make,  in  every  instance,  a  resume  of  the  facts  found,  after  the  conclu- 
sion mony  before  the  Court.
